Product Description:

The R-IB IL 24 PWR IN-PAC is a power input module produced by Bosch Rexroth Indramat for the R-IB Interface Modules series. It couples a 24 V supply to inline I/O segments, delivering the primary field voltage while maintaining the required system bus continuity. Within an automation station, it occupies a single slot and provides the electrical entry point that upstream power supplies need to energize sensors, actuators, and electronics distributed along the rail.

The module accepts a nominal supply of 24 V DC and tolerates an AC voltage component of up to 5%, so line ripple stays within limits that will not disturb downstream devices. A maximum load of 8 A can be routed through the internal power path, and external protection is required because no internal fuse is fitted. Functional insulation has been verified with a test potential of 500 V AC, and the housing carries an IP20 ingress rating that suits cabinet-mounted installations. Class III designation restricts the unit to safety extra-low-voltage circuits, while reverse-polarity circuitry and integral surge suppression help prevent damage from wiring mistakes or transient overvoltage. Spring-cage terminals handle conductors up to 1.5 mm², allowing quick tool-free connection during panel assembly.

The compact housing supports dense layouts, with an overall width of 12.2 mm, a height of 119.8 mm, and a depth of 71.5 mm. At just 59 g, the module adds very little load to DIN rails or carrier frames, which is useful in mobile or vibration-sensitive equipment. Operation is permitted up to 3,000 m above sea level, so altitude does not restrict standard cabinet installations. Spring-cage contacts maintain clamping force under temperature cycling, and the rated conductor size helps keep contact resistance low for high-current paths.
